Hurrah for mentioning the "elephant in the room". It was a pleasant surprise to even have an acknowledgement of the detrimental effects of high-end tourism on water consumption, dislocation of local inhabitants etc BUT - why did neither Susan nor Geraldine mention the environmental cost of all that short-break travel which uses non-renewable fuel and pollutes the planet with its emissions? In fact, Susan spoke of a long-weekend holiday to Fiji as though it were quite normal and acceptable.
